About $682 and change if you pick them up from his Melbourne warehouse.

I got jumped all over when I suggested getting parts from Japan as opposed to buying them new from Cazz for the DR30 ................ but,

What price do you put on CANNOT BE FOUND IN Australia, near IMPOSSIBLE to get?

I think the cost is reasonable for what they are, if they are what you want.

Remember it is the only source for our classic cars.

I paid over AU$120.00 for a Paul Newman badge and thought it was a bargain, because I couldn't find one anywhere.

Cheers, D

i got the series 1 chromes. naturally they attract a much higher cost than the s2. mainly because there's a shitload more s2 lights for sale!

it took me like a year and a half to own s1 lights and i passed off about 10 opportunities to buy s2's in that time.

that pic is the sex btw lol.

I'd like to get the S1 chromes, i like them better.

But i got mine cause i wanted stove tops right then and there.

and it came with garnish.

I think I will look into that, just love those S1 lights.

How much you reckon i could get for my S2s?

I got them for $390 to my door, looking to get most of that back.

Wires modded to suit Aus spec C210

all 4 lights on low for headlights

then all 4 on high for brakes.

The ones on import monster are at about the same price I payed for mine in Japan(25,000 yen), though mine weren't perfect they where definitely better than those, and cost considerably less to ship.

I think you did well with 400 odd for the S2's Socrates. S1's in the same condition for will fetch good moneys. $400+ AUD in Japan not including additional shipping charges etc.

Nice looking garnish, hardest part to come by in good cond. Check the top mounting bolts on these as they are very brittle.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.

      Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.

      Freddy Plenum vs Genuine options RB25

      My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.

      There is a really fun solution to this problem, buy a Haltech (or ECU of your choice) and put the MAF in the bin.  I'm assuming your going to want more power in future, so you'll need to get the ECU at some stage. I'd put the new MAF money towards the new ECU.
